Re: [Goanet] St Xavier's College?

Cornel I think you have missed two obvious facts which makes you think that you could not be wrong. One: The Diocesan Society of Education runs the college at Mapusa. (So obviously St Xavier's is not an association that runs it.) Second: St Xavier's College is very obviously a name given to the

[Selma] This may be problematic for two reasons. Firstly, no one is omniscient enough to be able to decide this 'once and for all' even for a compact state like Goa. Secondly, the whole point about progress is to move from one resource situation or condition to a different, higher, one. This requir

While on this point, I remember our old school principal, Fr Vincent Gomes de Catao, emphasising that the school's name was not "St Britto's High School" but "St Britto High School" (without the apostrophe/possessive). But, if my schoolboy memory serves me right, the point he was making was just t

[Selma Carvalho] The first part makes sense. In which case, logically, the only choice for Goans is between turning Goa into a 'city' by design or by default. In any event, there should be some 'alternative' to what has been proposed as a regional plan. What is it? Cheers.

Re: [Goanet] Good article on the opposition to the Regional Plan

Dear George, That Goa will be concretised within the next twenty years is a given. Whether that happens through a massive plan guaranteed to bulldoze its way through thickets of forest or whether it happens on a piece-meal basis, the fact is it will happen. The only choice Goans have is to decide
